Shops in the Queens/ Long Island Area - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

yuroldhat · 07-05-2013, 07:37 AM

Greetings all,

A complete car noob here and just got my FR-S last week. Love the thing to death especially coming from a 2005 Civic. Brief background about myself: I play paintball every weekend - I guess you can call it a second hobby. I love tinkering with stuff and learning how things work the way it should. I'm almost positive that I will start to tinker with this car and am looking for a reputable and reliable shop I can go to for all my performance and labor needs - more of a long time relationship really.

If anyone can chime in their recommendations, that would be great!

Thanks!.

Lex

I have been going to Tarmac-SPL in Farmingdale for years now. Hands down the best shop on Long Island in regards to friendliness, reliability and quality of work. They're attention to detail is amazing and the owner of the shop, Damian, treats every car that comes in as if its his own. He used to play paintball religiously as well lol.

No wrenching here but I got you covered on the detailing front as needed. I've done over 10 ft86 club members

My shop is also pretty close to a paintball spot (west babylon)
